tmpfs: simplify unuse and writepage
shmem_unuse_inode() and shmem_writepage() contain a little code to cope with pages inserted independently into the filecache, probably by a filesystem stacked on top of tmpfs, then fed to its ->readpage() or ->writepage(). Unionfs was indeed experimenting with working in that way three years ago, but I find no current examples: nowadays the stacking filesystems use vfs interfaces to the lower filesystem. It's now illegal: remove most of that code, adding some WARN_ON_ONCEs.
